My expectant father book warned me that at no point in this pregnancy will people ask me how I’m doing.  I initially laughed about that, and said “we’ll see”.  It also said that when I announce the pregnancy, many people (mostly male) will ask: “Is it yours?”  Well, as for the second thing, I probably had 40% of the men I told (generally the guys I’m not very close friends with) ask me that.  It’s kinda sad, actually.  It’s not even a funny joke.

But as for the first part, I’ve found it to be absolutely correct.  Nobody asks about me, they ask about Ash.  In mind, they’re doing it RIGHT – they SHOULD ask about the woman.  She’s got a sack of potatoes in her belly while I’m just a little nervous.  So I don’t mind it, actually.

The ironic part is it drives Ash nuts.  She keeps going out of her way when someone asks about her to also mention how I’m doing.  A silly, thoughtful girl, that’s what she is.

But I will also go on record as saying her family is constantly asking about me, my shows, my projects, my disc golf… her sister even asked if I was able to ask if I had time to finish recording demos of The Unusual Suspects for the Korean package.  They’re exceptionally sweet.

So I guess the point of this, if there is one, is you don’t need to ask me for my sake.  But Ash might kick your ass if you don’t.
